Our Soldiers

Im very proud of our brave men and women who fight for our freedom every day calling home when they can we ask how they've been and like a good soldier say okay But as a mother and I'm sure many others we at times hear something in their voices this war has taken it's toll, they need to get home but home isn't one of their choices And yes I understand my son took an oath to serve - to protect - to defend but the military made promises to him as well but once deployed do those promises end So I'm sure you'll agree when I say freedom isn't free if comes at an astronomical cost just look around you open your eyes see how many soldiers we've lost
